Thomas is a level headed kid and I like that. Not only a great athlete but a smart player too. Would be shocked if he doesn't come to The U

This kid is a class act. You can tell his head is screwed on straight and even though he's been recruited by two rivals he's handled it better than anybody ! Someone I'd love to have on my team and even though I want him at Miami, I want to wish him well WHEREVER he goes......but please go to Miami, lol

I just have a sneaking suspicion Bama looms larger in the background than we realize. Not saying I think he goes there for sure, but would not shock me if he did.

Nonetheless a good article to read David! Didn't expect him to be overly enthusiastic about the visit during the interview because he doesn't wanna give it away. Im pretty sure he had a great time. Glad that Tracy Howard was his host.

"Tracy was just telling me that it is a great thing to be able to play in front of your hometown team," Thomas said. "It is nice to be able to feel the support from your friends and family and you can always drive home if you need to get some homecooking.

It's true. You can't ever really be surprised if Bama's in the picture and a kid goes with them.....but in this case I'd pretty bummed if he did.

Nice kid. Hope he comes to UM. Don't know why he would go to tallahassee. Seems like there's nothing there but the school itself. Instead he can head to CG and enjoy a much better education, playing close to home, in a great conference with a lot of his friends and be coached by a fantastic staff and an NFLer at his position. There is just not reason for Thomas to go anywhere other than UM.

I think after seeing how close Duke Tracy Deon Malcolm put the "city" on their back, I think MT wants to be part of it. I guarentee he saw how much the fans loved seeing them @ the bball game wednesday...

I'll tell you guys 2 things, whoever gets him gets a GEM...and that basketball game was the best recruiting tool yet, lol. If that game goes in the other direction then i'm not too sure what these players are thinking

up in the air boys... I say we have a 30% chance of landing him with all the other schools representing the remaining 70%. AG really put all the eggs in one basket for the end of the recruiting season. In the end I think we will get at least 1, maybe 2 prospects we targeted. Its gonna be hard to get them all.
